The fact that they put a Spirits Tracks suit of armor summon seemingly as one of moves is interesting, I do wonder if this Zelda will retain the tradition of the Sheik transformation or if they will separate the two.
Rosalina and Luma from behind… poor Zelda and here I was thinking only Link and Fox would get put in the embarrassing pics of being dominated.
Jojo Link is perfect. :lol: Now I really hope Ganondorf returns.
Damnit, I missed out on cool stuff again due to real-life stuff. Oh well, this is a fine thing to come back to! May as well join in on the conversation threads though.
Micaiah hate: Wow, and here I thought I was the only one who disliked her actions in the story. I like her visual design, I like her attacks, all of that is great. It’s just the way she behaved that made me go “…Okay, why. Why is anyone following you. I’m not even asking that as a question, this is a flat statement of disbelief.” Oh well. She’d add some interesting things to the game if she got in, but is certainly not my top choice for a Fire Emblem rep.
Zelda: Hell yes. If they have given her the improvements she needs, she’ll be a lot of fun! Very glad they kept the Twilight Princess design, it was such a detailed one and I like that.
At this point… I can safely say everything I deeply wanted out of the roster. The rest of the character reveals could be half the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, a series of thinly veiled cheap shots and insults at me personally, Shaq (with Shaq-Fu and genie costumes), and Iwata cosplaying as Soda Popinski… and I would be legitimately excited to play the game anyway. Between a half-dozen characters I’m really interested in, anything else is just a bonus.
That’s setting my bar about as low as it can be though, because chances are with 20-something more characters (estimated, this is purely a guess on my part) to reveal, surely a few of them will make me hiss an unusually satisfied “Yesssssss” and fist-pump.
Taz Obi’s fairy comparison image: That is amazing. I’d always thought it was weird Link kept sprites in bottles, but the Bowser pic puts it in perfect context. Thanks for posting that!
If you haven’t read it yet…Sakurai talks about how Bowser feels pretty strong in the current version of the game plus saying that it took 6 years to balance Brawl.
I’m confused though…Brawl got announced in like 2004-2005 IIRC. checks Yup…2005 conference was when it was announced and then the game was released in 2008. Sakurai had no clue that Smash was coming to the Wii when Iwata announced it on stage and they didn’t even start on the game until after the announcement. I’m guessing Sakurai maybe felt like it was 6 years when it really was half that.
Sakurai is also trying to hype up the game like it’s going to reach its deadline. Everyone should know by now to not even trust the first date that they decide to throw up.
Project melee predicts the future.
I have 2 rules I’m standing by as far as the roster goes and I’m wondering what you guys think.
#1: If they were in the N64 game they’re in every game
#2: If they made it from Melee to Brawl they’re in the upcoming game
Good Rosalina analysis, makes me more hype to main her.
This sounds about right.
Roy was our boy. Was. 
I’ve said from the beginning that the N64 vets are not in danger of not making it to SSB4.
If Toon Link made a return, then there’s a chance that Falco and Ganondorf will return. But there’s also a chance that they won’t IMO. In Ganondorf’s case, they could replace him with Ghirahim or Demise.
the character release coincide with the games that are coming out on the wii/3ds… I think Marth was the only exception to this unless a fire emblem game recently came out
its odd we havent gotten a pokemon rep yet when x/y came out which makes me think we are getting new ones. plus there is a chance for Dixie Kong to replace diddy with tropical freeze dropping
remember what Sakurai the Troll said “its so good too see so many females reps this time around”
Is it just me, or does the left one look a little more detailed…even if so, the difference in detail seems minimal.
Remember that troll image of that one Pokemon from X/Y (forgot the name)? We’ll definitely see new Pokemon. I like to think that Pokemon Trainer will return with all-new Pokemon from XY.
With the release of X&Y, Mewtwo’s two different forms in said game, and his appearance in Origins, I am heavily, HEAVILY praying I get my main back and they announce Mewtwo for this game. Once I got him in Melee he was all I used.
Lucario can go suck a fuck. Dude had awkward normals and B specials.
The fuck did you just say.
I liked Lucario, but I like Mewtwo more in every respect. Do want.
LOL @ IGN guy calling Rosalinas spike OP. Are we starting tier talk this early?
Its whats hip now, Zoolander.
You heard me.
Pop those two into the ring and guess who comes out on top.
neither of them. Jigglypuff will come in and show them who the real gangsta is.
